Thirty-Seven Billion in Shares Sold

The holiday season is traditionally a time of generosity and giving of gifts. That's certainly the case when it comes to the people of EVE. The isk is pouring in! Today we have an unprecedented Quintuple Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™ to award! The honor goes to mynnna, whose purchase of 4,444 shares sent us past the 33, 34, 35, 36, and 37 billion marks. mynnna, universally recognized as one of EVE's foremost economics experts, is now the New Order's largest shareholder. The Tips of the Hat are each well-earned.

The torrent of isk that has been dumped into the New Order's coffers in recent days is beginning to open up new possibilities. We've already been reimbursing the cost of our Knights' Catalysts, and that will continue indefinitely. The additional isk may make it feasible--in certain limited situations--to execute ganks against Orcas or other high-value, high-EHP targets in highsec, through the use of ganker Brutixes and/or Taloses. Much more info on that soon. In the meantime, Knights are advised to fully train up their T2 Catalyst capabilities. I know some of you are running out of skills to train, so further suggestions are forthcoming.

\o/ Might I suggest a bountying program for miners who spread rebel propaganda and or talk shit because they are fully tanked or in a skiff? It doesn't take much to make a mackinaw profitable to gank and even though the bounty may not have an "actual" affect (compelling people to kill them) and if we really wanted them dead they would be, the bounty still has a very real psychological affect that may follow them for some time. Their paranoia/emo-rage is exacerbated by the fact that they mostly don't understand the bounty mechanics or anything about EVE really.
